a great location from the second floor of sidebar café. kinda too late coming there kasi they closed the venue early. had to rely on "musician connections" to get in. sayang kasi this set was the one i wanted to listen to, yung blues line-up. i've always liked the blues. fusion with r&b or soul or just plain old school. sayang.

spotted this guy wearing pointy ears and carrying a sign that said "define love." when pinikpikan played the closing gig at the main stage that night, he started interpretative dancing in front of the stage! kaya binato siya ng mineral water bottles para bumaba hehe.

a friend talked about being chased. she posted questions that i will try to answer:

1. have you ever chased anybody for anything?

yes, when i was no more than 10 years old. i was living in my lola's house in proj. 4 and we had a guava tree sa harap sa labas. may isang malaking bunga siya na super laki than the usual (guapol 'ata). binabantayan ko siya at ina-admire from the inside when may biglang pumitas na passerby. labas ng gate ang lola nyo at hinabol ko. to no avail. mabilis sha tumakbo.

i am your best friend or worst enemy. choose.

this site is a repository of things i think about. reflections, thoughts, angsts, musings, observations, philosophies, theories, rants, hypotheses on life and all its aspects and culture and all its nuances.

it is written primarily in Filipino and English, the official languages of my Asian archipelago nation called the Philippines. it is also written in sub-languages of communities which i belong to, primarily metropolitan gayspeak and showbiz dialects.

while my aim is to be formal in this space, attempts fail due to psychological factors that affect my day. hence, i could speak in tongues, discombobulate endlessly, or just let the stream of consciousness flow. hello virgina woolf, ikaw ba 'yan?

‘yun na.

and one more thing: if you are offended by feminism, lesbianism and all things nice, stay the hell out of here. but if you're willing to learn and open your mind -- in a way opening your heart -- then read on, and feel free to ask smart questions.
